Halitosis is an unforgivable social fault. It is unforgivable because it is inexcusable. And it is inexcusable because it can be promptly overcome by the use of full strength Listerine Antiseptic as a mouth wash. Surveys show that not one person in ten escapes halitosis entirely. It may be absent one day and present the next. Its causes are many: excess of cat- ingor drinking,decaying teeth. pyorrhea, fermenting food par. ticles in the mouth and slight infections of the gums, mouth,

nose or throat, from which unpleasant odours arise.
Being a germicide, capable of killing 200,000,000 germs in 15 seconds, Listerine checks decay and Infections which causéodours.Being also a pow- erful deodourant, it quickly gets rid of the odours them- selves. The breath is left fresh, sweet and clean.
Rinse the mouth with Lis- terine morning and night and before any bus- iness or social engagement. Keep a bottle handy in home and office. It puts you on the safe, polite and acceptable side.
